VirtualBox is a free virtualization application that allows you to run Virtual Machines on your own computer. Several different applications are available but McCombs Computer Services recommend using Oracle VirtualBox, since it is free and is available for Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems. Once installed, you can set up your own VMs or download ready-made student VMs from McCombs Computer Services. Please see Installing OVA files using VirtualBox for more information.
